The amount of cooper that are contained in 120 pounds of the brass is equal to 78 pounds.

  • Let the amount of copper be C.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Quantity of brass = 120 pounds
  • Percentage of copper = 65%

To calculate the amount of cooper that are contained in 120 pounds of the brass:

In this this exercise, you're required to determined how many pounds of copper can be found in 120 pounds of the brass. Thus, we would solve for the percentage of copper contained in this type of brass.

Copper = \frac{65}{100} \times 120\\\\Copper = 0.65 \times 120

Copper, C = 78 pounds

Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use: Step 1: Choose
Dafna11 [192]
The incorrect step in Talia's solution is the step 4 which is  "step 4 is incorrect because it shows and incorrect substitution of slope value into the point-slope form". The correct steps are as follow:
step 1: choose a point on the line which is (2,5)
step 2: choose another point on the line which is (1,3)
Step 3: determine the slope which is m = rise / run. The line runs 1 unit and rises 2 units so the slope is m = 2/1
step 4: substitute point on the line (2,5) and the slope of the line such as:
y-y1 = m (x-x1)
y-5 = 2 (x-2)

This is the correct steps.

Answer:

<u>2,365,200,000 times</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u> :

  • Average heartbeat rate = 60 times/minute
  • Avg. human lifespan = 75 years

<u>To Find</u> :

  • Number of heartbeats in lifetime of 75 years

<u>Solving</u> :

  • Let the number we require be n
  • n = average heartbeat rate x 60 x 24 x 365 x 75
  • n = 60 x 60 x 24 x 365 x 75
  • n = 3600 x 24 x 365 x 75
  • n = 86400 x 365 x 75
  • n = 31536000 x 75
  • n = <u>2,365,200,000 times</u>

The formula, P=V^2/R,gives the relationship between resistance (R), voltage (V) and power (P). Solve the formula for Voltage
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Start by multiplying both sides by R to isolate V².
V² = P·R

Now, take the square root of both sides to get V.

V = √PR
